Abstract:
In May 2015, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording at Lower Farm, Brettenham, Suffolk IP7 7BS (NGR TL 965 551). The monitoring was undertaken during groundworks for a two-storey front extension and new rear single-storey extension. The monitoring was commissioned to comply with a planning / listed building condition attached to approval for the development (Babergh District Council Ref. B/14/00678/LBC/TH), based on the advice of Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service Conservation Team (SCC AS-CT). The site lies on the south-western side of Lower Farm Road, on the edge of Brettenham parish. It comprises the existing dwelling of Lower Farm, which is within a farm complex which is partially enclosed by the remains of a moat. It is proposed to extend the dwelling to the front and rear, for which listed building consent has been obtained. The farmhouse is described as being timer-framed and plastered, dating to the 16th-17th century. The Suffolk Historic Environment Record (HER) notes the archaeological importance of the site. It lies within a medieval moated site, recorded as HER BTT 003. The moat is partial, and is up to 5m wide, partially water-filled. In the event, the monitoring encountered only modern made ground layers and two modern pits.
